Well that was what was being said when Kelly was made captain. He was and is a quiet lad.

I don't think that's too outrageous either.

He didn’t need to play a minute, he just needed to be here ready for when he’s needed. He would have delivered. Should of been steered towards coaching here

It wasn’t long ago we held the record for comebacks across all divisions. We’ve been a team that grinds out results since L1 promotion season. We rarely lose by more than a goal and rarely go on losing runs (until this season). It’s madness to suggest that TBH.

Probably not but the defence were doing ok at this point, if he was available I would be putting him straight into the team at the moment.

Let's be honest, we had an uprturn in form when we moved to a 4 and he was dropped.

Well yes, all those things happen when a team has momentum and confidence. You can have those things without a leader or vocal captain.

I agree we are missing leadership this year. Not just Fadz but Gus and Vik and Dabo for their personalities too. It definitely needs to be addressed in the summer. But this is an anomaly for us in the last five years.

Yea but now we are in poor form and and have been forced to switch back to a 5. Now would have been a perfect time to bring him back in.

Did anyone watch city unseen against Maidstone? Dasilva had his shirt off and looks overweight.

Shipping out McFadzean made sense if we were making a full pivot to the 433, but we didn’t sign any other players who could play in that formation, and now we’re back to the system where McFadzean looks pretty good. I don’t see what we gained by moving him on.

So much hindsight with the MCFadz comments. When he played this year everyone was saying he was past it and shite.

He didn’t want to stay and be a leader behind the scenes, he wanted to go and play week in week out

Spot on. It's a very expensive cheerleader to keep him to be a 'leader'.

I don't believe there's any major issues other than player fatigue, injuries to key players and a lack of strength in depth in a very small squad.

We had 6 players missing from the starting line up against a top 6 side away from home, and yet we only lost by 1 goal and had more chances.

It is what it is, but it's not the end of the world.

I think that's right but it could have been rectified in January with a couple of good loans.

Yea bit disappointed with the Jan transfer window tbf. I expected a striker and another midfielder to join (as well as EMC)
Maybe we were waiting to offload a few first, like Moore, Kelly and maybe Godden.

I hope there was. There was plenty of unrest with the fans. I would be concerned if there was no unrest after the way they performed.

Robins keeps saying there is a strong bond. That said i think there is a massive difference in heart and desire between Mcfadzean Kelly Eccles, Bidwell, Allen, Godden (before this season) and the likes of MVE, Thomas, Binks, Simms Wright and Da Silva. Not saying the latter group are not trying or anything like that, they seem solid pros, but the former group seemed to go above and beyond for the shirt and bleed Sky Blue which no doubt was also the case on the training pitch.

Fucking playground nonsense.

The club is on an upward trajectory and a couple of bumps in the road like the injuries and fatigue we’re seeing won’t change that.

Not really a couple of bumps, more like a wasted season. Ohare has been shit last few games. Got to be careful otherwise he’ll end up in league one.

probably makes more sense now after recent weeks hearing unrest behind the scenes with non playing staff.in the summer if not before we will see coaching staff leave , staff who have been instrumental over the past years

robins trying his best to ensure this doesnt happen

Adi being one. hes not happy with work rate of players in training. the new players feel its too much where the old guard are accustomed to it

lawrence also not happy with how things are going at the present moment

im sure if saddle asks his contact , hell back this up

Not gutless like this, just disorganised as so many new players. Who’s the main man at the club now, the leader?

Kelly is the Club Captain. And he's regularly in the changing room for each game as he's often an unused sub.

we’ve seen before the OP is clearly pals with someone from the League 1 squad and has regularly bashed ‘the new players’

fact is Fadz, Godden, Kelly, Allen are just nowhere good enough, and the OP is clearly trying to try and support his contact by degrading others.

Fact is, those players mentioned are still League 1 level players at best- and to progress we need to move on without them.
